lyrics

You always said I was a backseat driver
i always thought that I was quiet and kind, ‘cause I’m in denial

You’ve been side-glancing, holding your phone out of view
If you’re gonna leave, I’d like you to let me know soon
I’ve got places to go, and I’ve got things to do
I’m in a funny place, and there’s no blue
You wanna live in the ends, I guess I’ll see you soon

Hey wanna hang out? Wanna go somewhere innocent?
I’ve got some money in pocket we can get drunk
There’s always something to laugh about, something to laugh about, don’t you think?

I think that everything’s fine, and I just wanted to know
Tell me about your job, tell me how many you smoke
Tell me you’re bored of your life, and that you wanna go home.
But you’ll just stay in the ends as if you never knew

You always said I was a backseat driver
I always thought you were a real nice piece, just a real niece piece
I always thought you were a real top glider
I always thought you had some real nice teeth, just a real niece piece

Hey wanna hang out? Wanna go somewhere innocent?
I’ve got some money in pocket we can get drunk
There’s always something to laugh about, something to laugh about
Hey wanna hang out? Wanna go somewhere innocent?
I’ve got some money in pocket we can get drunk
There’s always something to laugh about, something to laugh about, don’t you think?
